As part of EEA's ongoing security and identity management improvements, we are currently migrating the system to Entra ID authentication.
We kindly ask all users to start using Entra ID credentials when logging in to the system. 

Please note that LDAP authentication will be phased out and disabled by the end of August 2026.
We encourage you to verify that you can successfully access the system and that your account and permissions function as expected after Entra ID login.
Should you encounter any issues or require assistance during this transition, please contact Laszlo Cseh at laszlo.cseh@eaudeweb.ro 
Thank you for your cooperation and support.

GES description
Permanent changes in hydrographic conditions shall not adversely affect marine ecosystems.
Spatial extent and distribution of permanent change in hydrographic conditions (e.g. changes in wave action, currents, salinity, temperature) on the seabed and in the water column, associated, inter alia, with physical loss (1) of the natural seabed.
Spatial extent of each benthic habitat type adversely affected (physical and hydrographical characteristics and associated biological communities) due to permanent alteration of hydrographical conditions.

It should be noted that the thresholds for the various parameters indicating criterion D7C1 have not been set.
In the absence of an EUSeaMap (2021) baseline map and/or insufficient data for some benthic broad habitat types, criterion D7C2 was not assessed. It should be noted that the thresholds for the various parameters indicating criterion D7C2 have not been set.
